First let's start with the speaker grill. Compaq is so lame because my speaker grill already rusted a bit after 2 month use it and now it become like this..
That time don't have guts to disassemble the laptop...

QUOTE(LittleLinnet @ May 5 2009, 12:48 AM)
just wondering, do you leave some of the CF sticker to cover the edge or just clean cuts?

the sticker i bought last time is not sticky enough and if i do clean cut the edge will come off
*
last time i do
its so messy..not stick properly
got habuk oso at the edge of the stickers LOL sweat.gif

now doin clean cut...nais...it stick perfectly at the edges
use coin to make the rounded design and cut using knife
